Batch Rename Bodies

Unread post by zwei »

Is it possible to batch rename multiple bodies at once?

If the bodies are created from a single feature (eg: Boss Extrude), renaming the feature will rename the bodies
However, if the bodies are created from multiple feature (eg: multiple thicken), i could not figure out a way to batch rename the bodies

Thanks!

I was actually looking for a simpler and more flexible workflow (multiple select → rename, auto add prefix)... guess i need to create my own macro :|

I have made a customized one for a customer, so won't be able to share for free :roll:

I recall seeing more on the SW forums.
